I predict that at Survivor Series, we see Team Authority vs. Team Show, with a stipulation regarding his renewed employment. This is followed by a one-on-one with Kane (i.e. The Authority's "monster") at TLC. Show then challenges for the title at Royal Rumble.

A Traditional Survivor Series match? At Survivor Series?! Don't be crazy!

DANG!

Like I said, it wouldn't be a true unification, it'd just be one wrestler holding both belts for a time, then losing one.

I got tired of the WWE games when they started making it a pain in the ass to make your own characters. I liked when you could assign whatever stats you wanted to them, because I wanted to make my own wrestlers and set them up the way I wanted. When they started making it so you had to train them to get their stats up and shit and unlock moves, it became totally lame. I don't want to play your stupid storyline mode, WWE.

AI is merciless and just when you think you're winning they turn things around out of nowhere. The 30 Years mode is a nice nostalgia trip reliving moments from the matches Only downside is the commentary. They should have hired Ventura and Vince doing the "classic" matches commentary not JR and Lawler. Then for the modern era it's "heel" Cole/Lawler.

Also I don't understand why they just don't include the various skins on one icon for Cena, Taker, Triple H, Kane, Lesnar, and Ric Flair. "Hollywood" Hogan, Jericho, and Michaels have different move sets compared to their other counterparts. But the others? Why not just one slot like they did with Savage, Bret, and Ricky?

The other issue I have with this is the lack of tag teams. Yeah you get the classic top tiers superstars. But what about the Hart Foundation? Rockers? Nasty Boys? Demolition? Road Warriors? Bushwackers? The Twin Towers? New Age Outlaws? Brain Busters? Those immortal matches get tossed to the wayside.

Also the fact that the other "DLC" is locked (the various costumes, moves, music are all there save the actual characters) and won't be unlocked is stupid. You have the Warrior, but the whole pre-order thing has been a nightmare. Wal-Mart never carried this extra, and some of the Gamestops have had issues with their unlock codes (like the one I'm having with currently since the code they give is longer than it's supposed to be).

They should just give some of the fans the Warrior free period. Still, what you get is a lot. I'm having loads of fun with the create-a-character, King of the Ring, and playing in the classic arenas. I haven't even tried the new rivalry mode or parted some of the belts I won.

I'd say Syxx wait a month too. The current crop of creative wrestlers suck too. The best of the bunch are Piper and the Wyatt Clan.

That's gone in this mode. You're given a blank page and build from the ground up. There will be more DLC for more moves and features supposedly, but you get right from the get go access to everything to custom make your character. ......

I've already made a "Commander" Zechs with "Monsieur" Misiac.

The problem I have is they've made it so open it takes so freaking long to get the character how you want too. So I've gotten lazy and just went with the templates.

That was always the best part, though, in any create-a mode: The time you put in making everything perfect. I swear, over the years, I've spent more time fine-tuning characters than I have actually using them.

And don't be embarrassed: I only in the last few games began making "myself" as a character. Before that... and I swear to Kong I DON'T KNOW WHY I DID THIS.... I always created "Al Bundy" and used him.

But I had the same issue in sports games like Madden and the MLB games, in franchise mode: I spent HOURS creating my key players, and then doing full on drafts, etc... and once the season actually STARTED PLAYING, i lost interest quick.
